Chapter 35 The Elf's Misfortune
Chapter 35 The Elf's Misfortune
"Wow, a golden legend!"
"Hey, the person who won the gold prize looks familiar."
"Of course she looks familiar! She was the winner last time!"
"That's ridiculous! I don't believe anyone can be that lucky. There's something fishy going on!"
Is it possible that the odds of winning a group lottery are inherently high?
"Where did you get this shady dealings from in the dungeon? You've been reading too many fictional stories, haven't you? Go back to your mother and ask her for milk, kid."
The adventurers were in an uproar once again. This was the first time someone had won two gold prizes. Some of those who had been blacklisted by Caesar were so angry they almost ground their teeth to powder.
He hasn't won a prize yet, but how can someone be so lucky!?
He's not having it! Maybe participating in this group lottery will change his fate.
Countless black people had the same idea as humans, and one group lottery after another was held at the BOSS level to raise people.
at the same time.
Inside the giant golden cocoon, Undine listened to the mechanical voice and was overjoyed.
[This reward is a top-tier enchanted soul.]
Adventurers can specify the general form of the enchanted soul.
Once the form is determined, adventurers can vaguely specify the direction of the abilities granted by the Enchant Soul after enchanting, or choose a random ability.
"Longbow! Longbow! Longbow form!"
Undine jumped up and shouted.
[The longbow shape is malleable]
Please select the direction of the ability to be granted or random.
"I need to give the ability direction!" Undine shouted each word clearly, as if afraid that the mechanical program would misunderstand her meaning.
Please describe.
"I want to be able to draw my bow once and shoot multiple arrows, hitting different targets."
Ever since she enchanted her longbow, Undine had fantasized about this scene countless times. She never thought it would actually come true, and she was so excited that her pretty face almost contorted.
[The description is too complicated. Please send your imagination directly after signing the new contract. Otherwise, the effect of the Enchantment Soul will change to a random direction.]
A brand new contract appeared, and a mechanical voice simultaneously began a countdown.
Three, two...
"No, no, no! I'll sign! I'll sign!"
Undine ran at her fastest speed ever, screaming as she lunged at the contract, imprinting her soul onto it without a second thought.
The next second, a deep male voice rang in her mind.
"Undine, what kind of skill do you want? Just tell me."
"Uh... let me think."
Undine didn't sense anything was wrong at first, until she sent over the image she had prepared. She froze on the spot, as if petrified.
"No, no, am I dreaming? I must be dreaming."
Undine muttered absentmindedly, "How did I win the golden prize again, obtain a top-tier relic, and then become a slave again?"
"This is so absurd."
"This must be a dream."
As she spoke, Undine tried to twist her neck to the right like Willis, but a pair of illusory hands stopped her.
At the same time, Caesar emerged from a burst of golden light.
"This is not a dream. It's a pleasure to meet you. I am Caesar, the Lord of the Dungeon."
Undine rolled her eyes upward, sensing that the end of the slave contract was connected to Caesar. She tilted her head, trying to feign unconsciousness to deceive herself.
But it didn't work. Two seconds later, Undine opened her eyes resignedly.
She glared indignantly at the dungeon lord who looked familiar, but she couldn't quite place where she'd seen him before, and asked through gritted teeth,
"What do you want to do!"
"Tsk tsk tsk, as expected of a noble yet fierce elf."
Caesar snapped his fingers, and the same panel as Olya's appeared in Undine's eyes.
Undine
Class: Elf Archer (Trait: Natural Archer)
Rating: 28
Life Points: 700
Constitution: 34.5 (The higher the number of points, the greater the improvement)
Soul: 28 (The higher the score, the greater the boost)

Professional Talents: [Eagle Eye Lv2 (Sees higher, farther, and clearer; enhanced dynamic vision)] [Intuition Lv2 (Superhuman perception and feel)]
Status: Life essence depleted (can be replenished by practicing breathing techniques for several days), magic power saturated, unable to level up.
"Don't worry, I'm not a bad person. I was forced to trick you into signing the slave contract."
While Undine was still reeling from the complete data, Caesar slowly explained, and then snapped his fingers.
Warm life force flowed into Undine's body, instantly replenishing her depleted life force.
[Status: Vitality normal, mana saturated]
Undine opened her mouth, her throat too choked with surprise to utter a sound.
As a veteran with twenty years of adventure experience, Undine felt that her worldview had long been honed to the point that she could take any situation in stride.
But Caesar's appearance reminded her of the feeling she had when she first saw the existence of the dungeon when she was a teenager.
The sense of awe is indescribable, like a devout believer witnessing a deity descend to earth.
"How about it?" Caesar raised an eyebrow. "Come with me, I'll treat you very well here."
Undine still wanted to maintain her composure. As a noble elf, it was hard to accept the sudden change in her status as someone else's contract slave.
Seeing that Undine was still pondering, Caesar injected a large amount of life force directly into Undine's body.
[Status: Physical reconstruction in progress, magic saturation depleted.]
[Level: 29]
Constitution: 36 (The higher the number of points, the greater the improvement)
Soul: 29 (The higher the score, the greater the boost)
"Owner!"
Undine's invisible noble spirit succumbed to the allure of a substantial promotion.
"Just call me Boss, like Olya does."
"Orija!?"
Undine suddenly understood why she had felt something was off with Olya these past few days; those subtle abnormalities finally made sense.
Just as she was about to get angry, Caesar said at the right moment, "She begged me for a long time, and I observed her for several days before I accepted you."
Caesar's words instantly extinguished Undine's anger.
Yes, although Olya schemed against her, it was a huge opportunity that most people wouldn't even have.
Putting everything else aside, her current level progression is something that I, before meeting Olya, could only dream of.
Caesar smiled knowingly; elves were so easily fooled.
He didn't give Undine much time to think about the details and continued to drop bombshells: "You wait, I'll create a top-tier enchanted soul for you right now. If there's anything that needs to be changed, let me know."
"!!!"
Undine's last bit of resentment towards Olya transformed into gratitude. She excitedly moved closer to Caesar, watching with fascination as he added life force to the enchanted soul in the form of a longbow.
A few minutes later, Caesar wiped non-existent sweat from his forehead and completed the creation of his first top-tier enchanted soul.
"Done, one arrow, a hundred shots."
